Hawks will not be #1 this year... Other teams will beat them and their Coach cannot Coach. He will be out coached once his team does not dominate the competition.

Sorry but the time has come to push a true frontrunner, BBL. We beat Edge and we beat LXC. Sure we lost to the Hawks, Eclipse, Express, Diamondbacks and a few others but we play as tough as a schedule as anyone. BBL is top 5, come on

The kids are good kids. The coach is a dweeb.

Prediction: A Northeastern team will be #1 this year. In the meantime, please go back to the mid-Atlantic thread. We’re trying to keep it classy here.

Sure. So who is knocking of HAWKS.

North of the Border (NOTB).....I will never again pay for my kid to play in one of your tournaments. Allowing 2025 players to play in the 2026 division today is completely unprofessional and poor sportsmanship. Peace out, NOTB.

We sent the same email to all teams regarding 25/26 bracket. It is interesting when moms and dads from certain organizations known for carrying older kids and hold backs on their roster complain about such things.

And boom goes the dynamite!

Translation- Express didn't win so they are taking their lacrosse stick and ball and going home and never playing with NOTB again... hahaha

Translation= you are a brainless fool. Express doesn’t play notb box . Now go back to sleep

What time did you send it? 7:29 am? Then why was there no 2025/2026 bracket? You clearly had a 27/26 bracket, a 23/22 bracket, and a 24/25 bracket. But you had a straight 2025 division and a straight 2026 division.

Plus, you’re a terrible business person. Insulting teams who are paying customers is just plain notIntelligent. Dishonest and dense is no way to go through life.

Hahah, I guess one of the 2 express Teams in the NOTB didn’t invite you this past weekend.. UHOH time to find a new team if you plan on locking down that scholarship for Jr...

Funny how all the Express teams say the same stuff when they lose. We don’t even practice Box. So funny and so typical.

To the brainless fool , people do other things like go away on holiday weekends . You played the leftovers , so relax and go oat yourself on the back for winning a weak box tournament . We will see you on the real lacrosse field . Why don't you and the other 91 dads go take some weekend classes...it's really difficult to argue with someone with the brain of a 5th grader .

Oh that’s right only Express players went away this weekend. I forgot no one else vacations.. if that makes you feel better then heck good for you.. truth is you’ve made 2 brainless comments. You didn’t play NOTB (which was incorrect) and if it was so weak then 1 of your 2 teams should have won it..

Oh yeah and good job being a good teammate calling 12yr olds on your own team LEFTOVERS...

Now you can go back to making Tic Toc videos with your awesome stud lacrosse player.. Because god knows your so cool and smart..

notintelligent and studard are also a way not to go through life. when did express become such a whine factory?

looksl ike island box ran the show, who dat?

any word if there has been some sort of sharing of resources by all the LI teams (express, 91, igloo, legacy etc) so the teams can compete come this summer? Do something to at least make it worth the while. May be the long play thinking- others will not get better because of the lack of comp and LI will eventually catch up? not sure that works... something to think about over the weekend.

Island box playing with 2025 players. That’s cheating end of story

NOTB invited them to play with their 2025s.

Once again it was listed incorrectly on tourney machine this was a 25/26 bracket. The picture we posted on our Instagram page is listed correctly. Champs 25/26 division.. so please stop with your ignorant posts about cheating.

Island box and NOTB also had a team in the 24/25 bracket as well.

You mean like pulling a “CoachC” at WAA...?

Exactly...That’s the most hysterical part CoachC’s Mantra, if you ain’t cheating you ain’t trying.....

Speaking of Instagram, was it also a mistake on YOUR flyer that you posted on Instagram prior to the tourney? Because anyone can look and see you clearly only list a straight 2026 division. You only started back pedaling when you started to receive complaints. Call me ignorant again......

You mean, “If you ain’t cheating, you ain’t winning?”

Typical 91 dads talking, when somebody beats then they are " cheaters , older, holdbacks " etc.....do you know how to say anything else . Pathetic , low intellect trash

All were 2026's on the WAA winning team.

A good 2027 club team could have beat the majority of 2026 teams at WAA

laxachusetts lost to NH tomahawks in box recently. Thawks may be another team to look out for at this level.

You people are too funny. It was a local box tourney on a holiday weekend. Most teams were missing half their team. Most games were 1/2 goal games. My son lost his last game. If the other team had 2025 players, it makes my son a better player going against older kids.
If you really need a T-Shirt to validate your lot in life, go online and order one.
When age based tourneys start next year we will see who is who.......like every year, 91, Express and legacy will be tops and Hawks and Laxachusetts will be saying they didn't want to waste their money going to Denver.

Island Box needed to save face a little after getting rolled in every other bracket. 0 for the tourney in 3 other brackets

Enjoy your 10K t-shirt at WSYL!!

Thanks THawks dad.

Wait, so there was a 2024/2025 bracket, a 2025 bracket AND a 2025/2026 bracket?!?!?
I guess the NOTB website also listed the bracket incorrectly on their own website where they list bracket champs. "2026 Bracket"

NOTB Tourney WAS NOT 26/25. Island Box grabed kids form other programs that were 2025. Also used a 2023 Goalie. Shame on them, return your medals

Save Face?? They faced all 24 Teams in the 24/25 bracket with a roster that consisted of 90% 25 kids and their Back Up Goalie. Not to mention they had 2 dads on the bench because their coaches were unavailable.

And if the lazy ref would stop listening to Express Coach about phantom crease infractions they would have beat them and were in every other game. But Not one of their parents were complaining about a thing. It was a fun tourney to let the kids run on a holiday weekend.

It most certainly was a 25/26 Bracket. We listed Legacy in the 24/25 Bracket as the champs of 24. Just like we listed the 25/26 champs as 26. All coaches were made aware in all Brackets that we were going to a 2 year Bracket because teams could not field enough kids to play. Which as everyone knows is standard in Box Lax, 2 yr Brackets

Go to Tourney Machine, IT WAS A 2026 Bracket
Cheaters

So much real estate up there. It's a shame

But the other combo grade brackets were listed on as 26/27 champs and 28/29 champs. Hmmm

Seems really odd that they'd have 3 different brackets where kids of 2025 grad year could play.
